About A Pleines Mains:

APM - A Pleines Mains (Helping Hands) is a charitable organization which works at a local level to provide targeted assistance and lasting improvement to the most deprived people in China.

The charitable projects we help are carried out by men and women in whom we trust and who truly make a difference every day in China: our French voluntary organization in China liaises with local Chinese project leaders. We give priority to helping orphans, former lepers, disabled people, deprived children, homeless people.

Thanks to more than 60 volunteers and a special team dedicated to monitoring the projets, we helped more than 3000 people in 2014. We can insure the transparent and effective use of funds by monthly financial controls and reporting, quality evaluation of the projects, defined systems and processes.

The moving company C2C Movers that is sponsoring APM will pick it all up for transportation to A Pleines Mains sorting center.

We at Awesome Kid's Club believe the charity organisation A Pleines Mains (APM) have an important cause to help improve the lives of less fortunate children and handicapped in China and we are happy to be involved as a drop-off location for the APM DONATION WEEKS introduced this year.

LostPensivos Films will use their professional eye to document the entire event.

All the children attending the event will be invited to create a meaningful graffiti wall led by an artist and drawing teacher from Awesome Kid's Club. The masterpiece will then be donated to ORBIS International after the event.

To celebrate and to promote awareness of those children living in China not as fortunate as us we hosted a spring bazaar together with our really awesome kids.

Children were encouraged to collect some things that they perhaps did not use anymore – old toys, clothes, books etc and to then set up a rug on the lawn and sell their wares to the other children onsite.

The vendors kept the money that they earned, but the unsold items were then donated to a children’s orphanage in Guangxi province.
